Subject:   incorrect super block on cdrom
Message-ID:  <0102261112260D.00803@PhD_1.testname.com.au>

I inserted my FreeBSD 4.2 CD into my CD drive, and as root entered:

mount /dev/acd0c  /cdrom

the response was:

mount: /dev/acd0c /cdrom: incorrect super block

why?

/etc/fstab lists:
/dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0
so unless fstab is itself incorrect (and I haven't altered it manually), my
mount instruction would seem correct.  ??

Strangely, the command "mount /cdrom" worked  !!

What is going on here?
